Bradley Manning: Peace Hero posters

A medal worth winning

These posters are a tribute to a true hero of war - a peace hero - Bradley Manning. Whilst the spectacle of the Olympics fades and the wars roll on, the designs featuring a medal actually worth winning!

They also help promote the Bradley Manning Support Network's inspirational website in order to highlight Bradley's 800 days of imprisonment and pretrial abuse. He suffers for daring to act upon his conscience; to be guided by his heart:

“If you had free reign over classified networks… and you
saw incredible things, awful things… things that belonged in the public
domain, and not on some server stored in a dark room in Washington DC…
what would you do?

God knows what happens now. Hopefully worldwide discussion,
debates, and reforms… I want people to see the truth… because without
information, you cannot make informed decisions as a public.”

It is time to act

We have the information... so it is time for us all to follow Bradley's example, face our fears and act for compassion. Time to speak out. Time to extend a hand. What are you good at? How can you use those skills to help build a loving and peaceful world?
